How to create DIY Patina Paint Mixes! #1 – Light Green Patina Paint Mix If you’re using smaller jars, just mix the DIY Patina Mixes in a bowl, and then transfer into your jars! Just keep the ingredient proportions the same, no matter how much or how little you choose to make! Also, since I’ve chosen to work in larger quantities, I’ve chosen larger jars…this means that the mixture can be created easily within the jar, rather than having to mix in separate containers. Note: For this demonstration, I decided to make larger quantities – so the measurements are a bit different than the DIY Rust Pastes.
Note: scrape and wipe as much of the mixtures off of your tools and hands as possible, and dispose in the garbage prior to washing up- we don’t want these goopy mixtures to go down the drain! Disposable Scruffy Brushes (or any stiff bristle brushes you don’t mind abusing!).Lots of damp rags or Baby Wipes and access to a sink! Very messy indeed.A protected work surface (a sheet of cardboard or similar should do the trick).It looks fantastic, and sticks to almost anything!.You can start your Patina Paint Mix Adventures NOW, rather than having to wait!.
It’s economical to create large quantities!.That would just be silly! Why Make it Yourself? It goes without saying that I cannot and do not claim that our DIY Patina Paint Mixes are the equal of those offered by commercial sources. It’s important to keep in mind that although the Heavy Gloss Gel isn’t cheap, over time, we will easily recoup our investment! I mean, how exciting is it to proudly mix up our own Batches of Magic? Besides, who doesn’t love an excuse to add more Art Supplies to the Stash?Īs always, I’ve done my best to concoct a reasonable facsimile of the much-anticipated commercial version. If you’ve made up a batch of DIY Rust Pastes, then this process (and the associated glorious MESS) will be very familiar…and yet, due to the addition of the gorgeous Brass Metallic Highlighting Mix, there are a few crucial differences. Today we will make our own Patina Paint! Many of you have shared your success with the DIY Rust Pastes Product Hack we brought you awhile back… and now it’s time to Step-Up our Game!
